After 4 1/2 years, I ceased daily posting to this website. However, I am sending to some people via email my research into the news. If you wish to be included, just let me know by making a comment below. I will not be posting every day as I did before.

The Office of the Inspector General (OIG) for the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has issued a draft of his report on the Fast and Furious scandal, which is now being poured over by DOJ officials who have 30 days to provide feedback.
One source who has seen the report told National Gun Rights Examiner David Codrea today that the report is "10 times worse" than expected.http://www.examiner.com/article/oig-report-on-fast-and-furious-10-times-worse-than-expected?CID=examiner_alerts_article
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The
Pentagon on Thursday threatened legal action against the Navy SEAL
who has written a book recounting his role in the raid that killed
Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden.
"In the judgment of the
Department of Defense, you are in material breach and violation of the
non-disclosure agreements you signed" and the Pentagon is considering
"all remedies legally available to us," Defense Department general
counsel Jeh Johnson wrote in a letter to the author, who writes under
the pseudonym "Mark Owen." http://www.breitbart.com/system/wire/TX-PAR-NWH02

Is Our President a Bit of a Jerk?

At law school, few people knew Barack Obama really well, and I wasn't
one of them, although we did have some dealings when we overlapped The
Harvard Law Review.But in the run up to the convention, it's clear that there
are people who have had extensive dealings with him -- and they don't
like him very much. Two themes have emerged from news coverage in the
last two days, and they are revealing:

The President does almost no fundraising for Senate or House candidates andhasn'ttransferred money to other party election committees. His numerouscampaign offices rarely coordinate with local candidates or display signs for anyonebut Mr. Obama. At rallies, Mr. Obama seldom urges supporters to volunteer -- oreven vote -- for other Democrats running for office. . .. He rarely shares the stagewith other candidates. http://townhall.com/tipsheet/carolplattliebau/2012/09/03/is_our_president_a_bit_of_a_jerk

Those quixotic [global warming] goals just plain wouldn’t work — certainly not in China,
and that means not in one-sixth of the populated world. When you see
China up close and personal, with its 2,000-plus coal-generated power
plants, it’s obvious that the kinds of changes proposed to fight global
warming could never be implemented there. No matter how much the
communist overseers wished to help the world lower its temperature, they
couldn’t do so without freezing the tremendous economy of the giant
nation — or fomenting a popular revolution — or both — and that means
the global strategy for combating climate change is really just so much
pie in the sky (or more appropriately “tilting at eco-friendly
windmills”).-
But that doesn’t mean we need to automatically endorse the harumphing
conclusions of social activists who proclaim “global warming” to be a
done deal — and the urgency of reversing it to be the equivalent of
gospel truth. Even if there has been a spike in global temperatures as
the result of CO2, that doesn’t mean we can simply trade away all the
benefits of coal for the self-satisfaction of thinking that we humans
have the power to raise or lower the level of the oceans, as Barack
Obama once declared! http://www.dailyinterlake.com/opinion/columns/frank/article_0fb03ad2-f4ab-11e1-94e8-0019bb2963f4.html

Seven months ago, Israel
and the United States postponed a massive joint military exercise that
was originally set to go forward just as concerns were brimming that
Israel would launch a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. The exercise
was rescheduled for late October, and appears likely to go forward on
the cusp of the U.S. presidential election. But it won’t be nearly the
same exercise. Well-placed sources in both countries have told TIME that
Washington has greatly reduced the scale of U.S. participation,
slashing by more than two-thirds the number of American troops going to
Israel and reducing both the number and potency of missile interception
systems at the core of the joint exercise.
“Basically what the Americans are saying is, ‘We don’t trust you,’” a senior Israeli military official tells TIME.
The reductions are striking. Instead of the approximately 5,000 U.S. troops originally trumpeted for
Austere Challenge 12, as the annual exercise is called, the Pentagon
will send only 1,500 service members, and perhaps as few as 1,200.
Patriot anti-missile systems will arrive in Israel as planned, but the
crews to operate them will not. Instead of two Aegis Ballistic Missile
Defense warships being dispatched to Israeli waters, the new plan is to
send one, though even the remaining vessel is listed as a “maybe,”
according to officials in both militaries.

Driving Ms. Jarrett

Jarrett once ordered “a drink from a four-star general she mistook for a
waiter” at a White House event, according to the report.

Jarrett is identified by Times correspondent Jo Becker as the
person responsible for such controversial policy decisions as the
insurance mandate for contraceptives, abortifacients, and sterilization
procedures contained in the Obama health care overhaul; the president’s
questionable decisions to sue the state of Arizona for its immigration
enforcement statute SB1020 and to allow Millennial illegal immigrants to
apply for work permits without consequence; and the president’s 2009
decision to fly to Copenhagen to lobby the International Olympic
Committee to select Chicago for the site of the 2016 Olympics. http://freebeacon.com/driving-ms-jarrett/

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In a rare moment of bipartisanship, the House
overwhelmingly passed a bill by Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) to audit the
Federal Reserve.
The first ever GAO (Government Accountability Office) audit of the
Federal Reserve was carried out in the past few months due to the Ron
Paul, Alan Grayson Amendment to the Dodd-Frank bill, which passed last
year. Jim DeMint, a Republican Senator, and Bernie Sanders, an
independent Senator, led the charge for a Federal Reserve audit in the
Senate, but watered down the original language of the house
bill(HR1207), so that a complete audit would not be carried out.
Nevertheless, the results of the first audit in the Federal Reserve’s nearly 100 year history were posted on Senator Sander’s webpage earlier this morning.
What was revealed in the audit was startling:$16,000,000,000,000.00 had been secretly given out to US banks and corporations and foreign banks everywhere from France to Scotland. From the period between December 2007 and June 2010, the Federal Reserve had secretly bailed out many of the world’s banks, corporations, and governments. http://beforeitsnews.com/economy/2012/09/first-audit-in-the-federal-reserves-nearly-100-year-history-were-posted-today-the-results-are-startling-2449770.html

Organizers at the Bureau of Indigenous Muslim Affairs
anticipated crowds at yesterday's "Jumah at the DNC" event in
Charlotte, North Carolina would reach 20,000. Instead, only 300 Muslims
showed up for the open air prayer ceremony.

The event had been listed on the schedule of events that were part of the officially sanctioned DNC/Charlotte in 2012 Host Committee's website.
But less than 24 hours before "Jumah at the DNC" was held, nervous
officials at the Host Committee quietly removed it from the list of
officially sanctioned DNC pre-convention events.
Officials at the Host Commitee confirmed that the event was removed. As NBC reported late yesterday:
"This event, like many others on the page, was user generated," a
senior Host Committee official told NBC News on Friday. "Upon further
review, and because speakers for the event and statements and positions
from event organizers were not appropriate and relevant to the Host
Committee, Charlotte in 2012 has decided to remove the event from our
events calendar."http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/09/01/Jumah-at-the-DNC-Fizzles
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Nearly 16 months after first pledging to help Egypt’s
failing economy, the Obama administration is nearing an agreement with
the country’s new government to relieve $1 billion of its debt as part
of an American and international assistance package intended to bolster
its transition to democracy, administration officials said.
In addition to the debt assistance, the administration has thrown its support behind a $4.8 billion loan being negotiated between Egypt and the International Monetary Fund.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Chairman of the California Democratic Party already had
political pundits, delegates and rivals buzzing a day before the
Democratic National Convention formally opened in Charlotte, North
Carolina, after telling KCBS Radio exclusively that Republican tactics
had been akin to Nazi propaganda.
“They lie and they don’t care if people think they lie,”
Chairman of the California Democratic Party John Burton told KCBS Monday
in Charlotte. “As long as you lie, Joseph Goebbels, the big lie, you
keep repeating it, you know.” “I mean, that’s very cynical, very dangerous,” Burton said. [Minority leader Nancy Pelosi refused to condemn the leader of the Democratic Party in California after he just compared Paul Ryan to a Nazi propagandist while she was standing right there.] http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2012/09/03/kcbs-exclusive-california-dems-leader-compares-gops-to-nazi-joseph-goebbels/

While pundits and critics are divided over whether "2016: Obama's
America" is a sobering documentary examining "the most mysterious U.S.
president in modern history" or an 87-minute attack ad, there's no
debating that the film is a box office phenomenon.
Taking a page from his own book "The Roots of Obama's Rage,"
conservative scholar Diniseh D'Souza's film has shocked industry
prognosticators by earning an estimated $20 million to date, more than
five times what the second-highest documentary this year, "Bully,"
earned. With virtually no promotional budget, the film has expanded in a
little over a month from one theater in Houston to 1747 screens this
weekend.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------College students from across North
Carolina will arrive in Charlotte by the busload. Same with members of
predominantly black churches in neighboring South Carolina. Their
goal: help fill a 74,000-seat outdoor stadium to capacity when
President Obama accepts the Democratic nomination Thursday night.

About Me

I began this blog when my local liberal newspaper (in a Republican district) not only refused to print any of the negatives about Barack Obama, but then refused to run my letter to the editor entitled Ten Reasons Not To Vote For Obama! I realized it's time to do something more than fume about it! I hope you learn some things your paper is not teaching you....
